Looking into this a little, we use make the widget 'enabled=false' I think?

What about instead only do 'readOnly=true'?
Then you 'miss' the visual cue that a form field is read only.
There could be a message when you try to edit the field?

Or in combination with 'frame=false' you would get a form in which the
fields do not like 'input fields'.</pre>

    <p>That sounds like an idea.</p>
    <p>Have a look here, that's the default behavior with setEnabled,
      where the actual modification of the widget is done:<br>
    </p>
    <p><a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/master/src/gui/editorwidgets/core/qgseditorwidgetwrapper.cpp#L65">https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/master/src/gui/editorwidgets/core/qgseditorwidgetwrapper.cpp#L65</a></p>
    <p>it needs to be checked with all different widgets if they are
      still in a sane and expected readonly state. If one is not, the
      behavior can be finetuned in their respective wrapper, as done
      e.g. here
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/master/src/gui/editorwidgets/qgsrelationreferencewidgetwrapper.cpp#L136">https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/master/src/gui/editorwidgets/qgsrelationreferencewidgetwrapper.cpp#L136</a></p>

Mmm, was trying to look into this, to find out that we use a wrapper
around the widgets:

<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/master/src/gui/qgsattributeform.cpp#L1077">https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/blob/master/src/gui/qgsattributeform.cpp#L1077</a>

Removing the
ww->setEnabled( enabled );
morphs the input in the default input of QGIS
ww does not have readonly or frame anymore

So more difficult then I hoped :-(

Richard
